Stripes and rattan, a great combination! Burberry sent down rich colors and made a bold statement on stripes. The trend is not going away but getting even more exposure. Hats, skirts and even trench coats get the linear stripe treatment. Very inspiring!
While at the Tri-Kes annual company meeting in Scottsdale, AZ we were able to get a private tour of the famous Boulder House. The home is located in North Scottsdale and is considered by many as an architectural and cultural masterpiece. Built by Charles Johnson in 1980, the home is listed on the National Registry of Historical Places and offers petroglyphs and evidence of Native people living at the site. A little ahead of its time..it was very inspiring to photograph.
Prelude, a beautiful vertical silk design, is one of our newer introductions to the Lanark wall-covering brand. Very fashion inspired I created Prelude to recreate the look of a natural and luminous crushed silk. A classic look in it’s own right, Prelude is luxe and light at the same time. Designers both in the interior and fashion industries have used the bunching of silk, manipulating it to create form for a very long time. Whether it be a silk dress, an evening bag or a pair of shoes, silk elevates any look to a higher level. Let our Prelude enhance your walls with a subtle texture rich with color and true elegance.

Mustard Seed. A color rich and spicy at the same time. Often overlooked and underused, this earthy color is deep and golden. With a little added zest, this color is a new twist on the everyday traditional gold. Looking modern and natural this 2012 mustard color is starting to be used more and more in interiors and fashion. Amazing with rich browns and golds it also works well with creams, silvers and black. Modern or traditional we will be seeing more of mustard in the future.

I love the color and the rustic nature of this wall. I took the photo while at the ABC store in NYC a few weeks ago.
Thought I would give everyone a little peak inside my studio. Shown above are shots of one of my many inspiration boards. This one is a gathering of images representing a "Natural Luxe" theme.
